Forever the President of our hearts, Lola is an almost-six-year-old who enjoys riding her bike, drawing, making lists, visits to the theatre & the art gallery, literally any park, and watching musicals on TV. She is particularly fond of her parents, Mama and Dada, her dog-sister, Lucy, and her best friends Alexander, Ben, and Mister Squirrel. She likes to make up songs, dance in the aisles of grocery stores, climb things that are too tall, “read” books, and swim. A lot.

Lola is best known for her Halloween costumes as feminist icons Hilary Clinton, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Roberta Bondar. And she knows most of the words to most of the songs in Bad Hats musicals (the rest she makes up).

Lola’s leadership style as President can be summed up in this story: just the other day, she and her Mom (Lauren, Bad Hats’ Board Chair) were driving past Soulpepper and she asked: “Mom, we should go see Peter Pan again right now…to see your great friends doing their magnificent work, just trying their best!”.

What… did you think we wouldn’t write a bio for a kid?
